How to Release the Grip of Anxiety

Like a predator lurking beneath your skin, anxiety crawls up your scalp, threatening to devour everything, and is never satisfied. A dreaded phone call can cause anxiety, but you can release those feelings by telling yourself to trust, to take care, that all is well. It works because you get what you’re looking for; if you expect anxiety, you’ll get it; if you program yourself for calm, you’ll get that. When you allow for space between things, you create a pathway for positive energy to run through you. Instead of hiding from it, embrace the pain that comes to you. Try to understand why it’s there. What is it trying to tell you?

About Keith Kurlander

I firmly believe in the innate power of healing that has guided me through my own process. My journey of healing and self-discovery started nearly twenty years ago at a time of an incredible crisis in my life.

“My work with Keith was profoundly eye opening. I had worked with other business coaches but he was the first one who was also a trained therapist. The knowledge and insight he offered met me in a very deep place to get honest about how I hold myself back and struggle to relate to my business. He spoke my language and even provided new language. I would continue working with Keith any chance I got and I highly recommend you try him as well!”

“Hiring Keith has provided tremendous value to my business. Although I have owned my business for 12 years, I had hit a low point. I was feeling unmotivated, my practice had shrunk, I was unsure whether to move onto a new career. Keith has provided me with incredible support, marketing and networking ideas and mostly importantly, a renewed passion. In the past 8 month, my practice has quadrupled. I highly recommend his coaching services.”

Alison GreinerCoaching Client, Los Angeles, CA

“I knew when I decided to go into private practice that I was going to need a lot of help, and I am so grateful to have worked with Keith as a business coach. With his guidance I was able to build a full and thriving practice in under one year. With patience, flexibility, compassion, and understanding, Keith helped me gain awareness of my resistance to business growth and how to move through the challenges. I can honestly say that without Keith’s knowledge and guidance, I would not be where I am today! Thank you Keith!”

“Over the past few years I’ve referred many college students to Keith for counseling services. Each student I’ve referred has returned to me with very similar reviews of him. They say that he was able to help them significantly improve their mental state, manage their emotions, decrease their anxiety and increase their overall well-being. Given the consistently positive feedback I’ve received, when I see a student in need of counseling, I do not hesitate to refer them to Keith.”
